Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Seeing that Chu Heng was done packing, she did not ask further.
It was getting late.
Third Uncle Chu Xing was already waiting at the door, driving a mule cart over.
“Brother Heng, we can go now.” Chu Xing was at the door, and the sound of the mule snorting could be heard.
The courtyard door was pulled open.
Chu Heng carried his backpack and his books as he walked out.
Chu Xing smiled and jumped down from the mule cart. He took the book box from Ye Muyu’s hand and skillfully placed it on the mule cart. When he saw Ye Muyu, he also called out enthusiastically, “Sister-in-law.”
Ye Muyu nodded lightly.”
Ye Muyu handed seven to eight copper coins to Chu Xing.
Chu Xing was stunned. He wanted to return it, but Ye Muyu had already stopped. He rubbed his head and looked at Chu Heng subconsciously.
Chu Heng’s eyes also flashed with a hint of surprise, but he quickly regained his composure. Seeing him look over, he nodded. “She’s asking you to take it.” “Then…Thank you, Sister-in-law.” Chu Xing did not reject it.
Chu Heng told Ye Muyu, “If you need anything, go to Mom. You can write to me when you learn how to write. Just ask Ah Xing to send it to me.”
Chu Xing was too embarrassed to interrupt the couple’s conversation and had already sat on the mule’s head.
Hearing his name, he quickly turned around and smiled at Ye Muyu.
“Sister-in-law, if you need to send anything to Brother Heng, just give it to me. I promise to deliver it to Brother Heng.”
Ye Muyu nodded, indicating that she understood. With Chu Xing’s help, she felt much more relaxed.
Seeing that there was nothing else to say, Chu Heng got onto the cart.
After looking at the two children and giving them some instructions, Chu Xing turned his gaze away and drove the mule cart away slowly.
Ye Muyu adapted quickly. After all, she had no feelings for Chu Heng now.
“Let’s go back to the house,” Ye Muyu said.
Chu Jin ran into the courtyard and shouted towards the sky, “Hahaha, Father is finally gone. No one will stare at me writing anymore!”
Chu Ziluo did not say a word and obediently followed Ye Muyu. When she heard her brother’s words, she subconsciously looked up at her mother.
Ye Muyu did not have any special reaction. If Chu Jin was not happy that Chu Heng had left, she would find it strange.
“Although your father has left, you still have to do your homework every day. Your father has already told your grandfather that he will check it in the future.”
Chu Heng did not believe that Ye Muyu could be strict with Chu Jin.
Ye Muyu also heaved a sigh of relief. She never liked to force things, and she had never disciplined her children. She felt that if she insisted on being the bad guy, the effect might not be good.
Naturally, she was happy to be idle.
When Chu Jin heard this, he did not refute it. Instead, he raised his head and looked at her. “Mother, then after I finish memorizing and writing every day, will Grandpa let me play?”
Chu Jin did not dare to resist in front of Chu Heng, but he wanted to struggle a little. At the very least, he could not only be studying.
“Of course, reading is also about the right amount.”
Ye Muyu answered with certainty, and Chu Jin instantly grinned.
“Mother, you’re so nice. Can you still make delicious meat for me in the future?” Chu Jin said coquettishly.
Ye Muyu reached out and tapped his forehead with a doting expression. “As long as you listen to me, I will cook delicious food for you every day and send it to you.”
“Ziluo too”
Chu Ziluo had been worried that her mother would not care for her after her father left, but when she heard this, she grinned happily..
